Andrea, they’re wearing them again, but they are fat instead of skinny. I still don’t get it, but I’ve seen at least 5 men with them in the past month. They tend to be young men, tho…..

Can someone tell me what the point of a 6 inch tie is?? I’ll admit I missed most of this decade, but I’m struggling to figure that one out.

Hee Haw was a good show. HeeHee HeeHawHaw. HeeHee HeeHawHaw.

Sadly, I remember these pictures well. Thankfully, I never dresed like that but I did have a shirt, I made myself, like the one in the middle. I absolutely loved the old cavalry look and made a Vogue skirt to go with it. Yes, oh yes. The cowgirl look was great. That way, I got to wear my cowboy boots. And I did love my cowgirl boots.

Oh lord, I don’t remember that at all! And I was 10 in 77. I used to sit and look at the Penney’s catalog and pick out my clothes, from the underwear all the way to the coats. Of course I was looking at ladies clothes and imagining how fashionable I would be. I don’t remember things that looked like that!

I think Andrea’s right about Hee Haw….

Wow… takes you right back…
Happy weekend! (and horrors–will my children someday look back at photos of my husband and me and just laugh and laugh and laugh? Yes, and it probably won’t be because of our awful fashion sense! )

Can we all say “Fashion Faux Pas?”

Jen you are just so wrong… . When my sisters and brothers get together to look at old photos or video tape, what a riot…. , we can be entertained for hours on end. Have a wonderful weekend.

It was the captions that were so particularly funny. The one above the kid read, “How to get your ass kicked in kindergarten.” I was laughing so hard I cried.

I guess it all depends on whether the people you knew were regulars on Hee Haw…
